"Called Hua, why didn't you come back from class? Did you forget to bring a book again?" Liu Qiaoye saw the cub running back and hurriedly asked. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The word "again" has a lot of meaning. Zhang Zhaohua forgot to bring a book, and I don't know how many times I ran back.
"No, I earned a hundred yuan today, I'm afraid of losing it, take it back and put it away. Zhang Zhaohua took out the two red envelopes from his pocket, and when he was on the way, Zhang Zhaohua looked at whether the red envelopes contained fifty yuan. In fact, this kind of thing gave Ma Lisong and Liu Guocai ten dares, and they didn't dare to fool them.
Zhang Zhaohua took out these two red envelopes, in fact, so that Liu Qiaoye could accept him to invite the statue of Master Zu to his home. Zhang Youping and Liu Qiaoye do not believe in Buddhism or Taoism, but people in the countryside have a sense of reverence for ghosts and gods. No one wants to have a deity in their home. Because the gods are not good at serving. If you say the wrong thing or say the wrong thing at any time, it will anger the gods. It's not good for the gods to blame.
"Where did the money come from?" Liu Qiaoye did not immediately take the two red envelopes from Zhang Zhaohua's hand. She wants the cub to understand that she doesn't ask for any money. To be a man is to do his duty, to make clean money.
"The school building occupies the place of the ancestral temple, and the patriarch is surprised, and the wall has collapsed twice. I helped them plead with Master Zu. Master Zu agreed to let them build a school building in that place. Principal Ma and the foreman gave me a red envelope. Zhang Zhaohua said simply.
Liu Qiaoye also heard about the collapse of the wall of the teaching building of Meiziao Primary School, but he did not expect that the wall collapsed not because of someone's revenge, but because the gods blamed him.
"Cub, don't dare to make any money in the future. Others have sinned against the gods. You go to intercede with others, if the gods blame you, aren't you just like Ma Daochang?" Liu Qiaoye said with some worry.
"No, it won't. Our grandfather is not so stingy. Zhang Zhaohua said this, Liu Qiaoye didn't dare to answer the conversation.
After Liu Qiaoye took the two red envelopes, Zhang Zhaohua invited the statue of the ancestor out of the schoolbag.
"Ah, what are you doing here?" Liu Qiaoye was startled. I think it's very common for this thing to be placed in the temple, and when I put it in my own home, how I don't taste right.
"I invited Master Zu back to be the family god of our family. In the future, Master Zu will bless our family. Zhang Zhaohua looked serious.
Liu Qiaoye didn't dare to say anything against it, please come back, it's not so easy to send. As the saying goes, it's easier to please God than to send God.
"Then you have to respect Master Zu well, don't be lazy, otherwise Master Zu will be blamed. "Liu Qiaoye has a big head and doesn't know how to educate the cubs.
When Zhang Youping came back, Liu Qiaoye pointed to the statue of the patriarch, "The cub has invited the ancestor back." ”
"This stinky cub ......" Zhang Youping was about to scold Zhang Zhaohua, but was stopped by Liu Qiaoye.
"What will I do in the future?" Zhang Youping looked embarrassed.
"That's fine. After the Chinese New Year, we will go to Guangdong. The cub wants to stay at home alone, maybe with the blessing of the grandfather, the cub will be safe. Liu Qiaoye could only reluctantly accept such a fact.
Zhang Youping also nodded helplessly.
Originally, inviting a family god back, it was not such a simple thing, and it required a lot of rituals. But the patriarch who turned the altar didn't have any shelves, so he asked Zhang Zhaohua to come back so casually, saluted a stick of incense, burned some paper money, and it ended up at Zhang Zhaohua's house so safely.
Zhang Zhaohua gave a stick of incense to his grandfather every day before going to school.
There was no more trouble in the new school building of Meiziao Primary School, and the next day, the wall did not collapse again. Liu Guocai finally took it to heart, and Ma Lisong also breathed a sigh of relief. Liu Guocai specially bought another pack of paper-wrapped candy that day, and also bought a few bottles of very rare drinks for Zhang Zhaohua, which made all the classmates in Zhang Zhaohua's class hungry to death. Zhang Zhaohua will not give a piece of candy wrapped in paper to these people who have always isolated themselves. I caught a few for the dumb man, and a few for Zhang Yuanbao, who has now begun to defend this cousin everywhere.
Although this incident has passed, another major event has happened in Meiziao. The barefoot doctor Liu Zong's fake big buffalo was lost. That night, the big buffalo that Liu Guocai and Liu Yunjun saw was Liu Zongtai's family, but after that night, the big buffalo disappeared.
Cattle are a terrible thing for a backward village like Plum Valley, where slash-and-burn farming is a terrible thing. Without this buffalo, Liu Zongtai and the other families who provided more than ten acres of paddy fields for a buffalo would not be able to cultivate it anymore. Therefore, the cattle thieves in the countryside are the most hated.
Because cattle are the easiest to tease mosquitoes, all kinds of gadfly and cowflies are also very troublesome. Therefore, the cattle pen is generally built in a slightly separate place. In the countryside, there is no protection for cattle pens, just to prevent cattle from running out and stealing crops. There are simply no measures to prevent cattle thieves from stealing cattle. Some clever cows will hook the bolt with their horns, and then run out and eat and drink.
That night, Liu Zongtai's buffalo didn't know whether it ran out by himself or artificially. The bolts lay across the ground, and the bullpen was empty.
Eyewitnesses Liu Guocai and Liu Yunjun saw cattle running over the hillside of Meiziao Primary School, and no one was driving the cattle at that time. Therefore, it is more likely that the cow will run out on its own. But then it became a mystery where the cow ran away. Liu Guocai and Liu Yunjun were only concerned about the safety of the wall of the teaching building at that time, and naturally did not know the final whereabouts of the cow.
Liu Zongtai's family searched all over Meiziao, but did not find any trace of the buffalo.
There was really no way, Liu Zongtai actually found Zhang Zhaohua's family.
"Called Hua, Uncle Liu, please do me a favor, find out where my buffalo is now? The buffalo is the life of our farmers, if this buffalo can't be found, our family's farming next year will be completely rotten." Although Liu Zongtai is a barefoot doctor, his main business is still a farmer. Farmers want to take a bite of food from the land, and the buffalo is the most important partner of the farmer. In the countryside, unless the cattle are sick and disabled, they will never be slaughtered for meat.
"Doctor Liu, my family is called Hua and a child, how can this kind of thing be done?" Liu Qiaoye hurriedly said.
"There is a Ping mother-in-law, the ability to call flowers, the whole Meiziao people know, why do you still hide it? Don't worry, I won't treat the flower badly. When it happens, I'm bound to be rewarded. Liu Zongtai hurriedly said.
Zhang Zhaohua came home from school and saw Dr. Liu at home, thinking that someone in the family was sick, "Mother, Dr. Liu gave you an injection?"
